Xiao Qian did not answer, but Xu Wenxuan expressed his opinion in Hong Kong-style Mandarin.
"This name sounds weird at first, but if you taste it carefully, it is very interesting. When doing business, the name is very important. A refreshing name is very conducive to our development."
Xiao Qianxin said I copied it, will I tell you?
Among similar food companies in his previous life, the most famous one was Three Squirrels, and it was indeed easy to remember and memorable, so he chose this name.
After it was proposed, it was unanimously recognized and applauded by everyone.
In the shortest possible time, the company was registered and started its business operations.
The headquarters building is expected to start construction after it is reopened in April. It is located at the junction of Songbei Avenue and Binshui Avenue. To the south is the famous Sun Island and adjacent to the Songhua River. It has beautiful scenery and an excellent environment.
The arrival of the three squirrels also brought an unexpected benefit.
The national economic and technological development zone, which was originally not approved until 2011, was upgraded nine years ahead of schedule.
The headquarters and R&D center of Three Squirrels will take at least more than a year to build, but related work has already begun.
The headquarters first rented the property owned by the district government next to it to serve as a temporary office location.
The R&D center was first established on the campus of Northeast Agricultural University.
"The introduction of relevant production lines is currently progressing smoothly. If our factory can be successfully completed before the year, it will be put into production next summer."
Xu Wenxuan's work efficiency is very high and he is very worthy of his high salary.
Xiao Ping is mainly responsible for connecting with government departments, and what he reports is also good news.
"As for the expressway, the province has actually considered it many years ago. Although construction has never started, the relevant exploration work has been documented. This makes their progress very fast. It is expected that the construction plan will be approved in April, and then it will begin.
Construction period. The provincial plan is to repair the section from the provincial capital to our factory first to meet our needs. As for the section to Jiagdaqi, it will be completed in the next few years."
The time required by Xiao Qian was tight, and the province had no choice but to adopt a segmented construction approach.
"The electric power company is preparing to pull a special line from the direction of Heihe to us. It will not take the line in Bei'an, nor will it use the power in Fularki."
This situation is what makes Xiao Qian most satisfied.
Whoever uses Fularki's electricity knows it, so I can't complain about it.
"In terms of water conservancy, the county has made a decision to transfer water to us from the upstream reservoir in the north and the Yuejin reservoir in the south. However, we need to do the corresponding projects ourselves, and the county does not have financial and technical support."
Xiao Qian was still very satisfied.
"As long as they agree. The relevant technology is really unrealistic to rely on them."
How was the original farmland irrigation done in the township?
Groundwater is used, and there are a number of wells scattered throughout the township. Farmers who need to irrigate their fields get their own water tankers, pump up the water and then transport it there.
It is conceivable how efficient this method can be and whether it can replenish the cultivated land with enough water.
It can be said that most of the time, farming depends on the weather.
Too much or too little rainfall is a disaster for farmers and agriculture.
If the three squirrels want to establish a scientific plantation, irrigation must of course be scientifically controlled. However, there is no suitable water source in the township itself, so water can only be transferred from reservoirs in two neighboring townships.
But for such a big project, it is not enough to expect a poor county to invest, even if it involves selling off the county magistrate.
Another thing, what the three squirrels have to do is scientific irrigation, how to design pipeline lines and how to control hydraulics, which all require extremely high technical content.
Therefore, companies can only do it themselves.
Xiao Ping hesitated to speak, but finally spoke.
"Actually, there is a big river in our village. Why don't we draw water from there?"
Xiao Ping didn't understand Xiao Qian's method of crossing a long distance to get water from afar, and felt that the cost of doing so was too high.
He didn't understand why Xiao Qian was so angry. He rolled his eyes at his second brother, feeling that he still didn't think comprehensively enough.
"Have you not seen the current situation of the Wuyur River? It is almost drying up. This river is an important water source for the Zhalong Nature Reserve. We have all used the water. What should we do about the nature reserve? To run a business,
Benefits are important, but we can’t lose anything more for it.”
Xiao Ping and Xu Wenxuan were stunned. They didn't expect that Xiao Qian, an entrepreneur, would actually consider environmental protection issues.
But if you think about it carefully, Xiao Qian's plans so far have always included environmental protection as an issue.
He is truly environmentally friendly, completely different from Chai.
All construction projects are being carried out according to plan, allowing the three squirrels to enter the research and development stage without any delay.
Xiao Qian and the others first went to Professor Xue Guangzhi of Northeast Agricultural University.
"In fact, after Western fast food culture became popular, we noticed the problem of potato cultivation. For this reason, we also did a lot of research and achieved some results. However, in terms of our local agricultural cultivation, the related demand is not
It’s so big that I thought these achievements would be shelved. This time, according to the needs of your company, our team plans to combine local potato varieties with California potato varieties to see if we can cultivate higher quality varieties.
.”
This time Xue Guangzhi's team received 50 million R&D funds from Three Squirrels, which has never been so generous.
Moreover, Xiao Qian has promised that if their research and development results are used by enterprises in the future, they will also receive relevant patent fees.
The generous behavior of the three squirrels really brought tears to the eyes of these scholars who had been living in poverty for a long time and made them full of energy.
"We have provided several potato varieties to Professor Chen Wenzhe. The specific product development situation needs to be understood by Mr. Xiao himself."
Xue Guangzhi's team is engaged in seed research. Relying on them, we can cultivate crops with higher yield and better quality. But how to turn ordinary crops into high value-added non-staple foods requires people majoring in food science and engineering.
Finish.
What varieties of potatoes can be made into potato chips and what flavors of potato chips can be made require professional researchers to develop.
"We collected all the flavors of potato chips on the market, including all that can be found at home and abroad, and conducted ingredient research. Combined with the potato types provided by Professor Xue Guangzhi, we came to the conclusion that our local potatoes can be processed
This kind of product is produced. If we wait until the next generation of varieties comes out, maybe we will be better in quality."
The conclusion given by Professor Chen Wenzhe is the most gratifying.
Since existing varieties can be produced, this saves a lot of cost and time.
Of course, raising tall buildings from flat ground is not without its difficulties.
Professor Chen Wenzhe was quite embarrassed.
"Mr. Xiao entrusted us with the task of product development. Although this is our honor, it also posed a problem for us."
Xiao Qian hurriedly said: "Professor Chen, we started from scratch. Everything starts from scratch. It would be abnormal if there were no difficulties. We work together. No matter what difficulties we encounter, we can always find a way by pooling everyone's wisdom."
Chen Wenzhe let out a long sigh, but he did not hide his illness or avoid medical treatment.
It turns out that the food science and engineering majors in Chinese universities focus more on theory and academic fields, but are very weak in practical application capabilities.
Let these professionals study the ingredients of various foods, the nutritional value and chemical composition of various ingredients. This is their strength.
But when asked to develop flavors that are popular with consumers, they don't know where to start.
The most important thing is that Three Squirrels is a startup. The research department has not yet been established, and it is impossible to obtain more data to support research and development.
For Chen Wenzhe's team, it is actually a bit like blind men trying to grasp an elephant. It is not surprising that they feel uneasy and unable to find the direction.
But the problem they encountered was related to the development of the three squirrels.
After all, if you can’t produce a product, how can you compete for the market?
"How about we start by imitating other brands? Anyway, we control the origin of raw materials and can achieve lower prices. As long as we can guarantee the quality and add enough publicity, there is still a lot to be done."
Xu Wenxuan proposed a solution that was not a solution.
That's imitation.
This is what many companies do when they enter the industry, and it has been proven to be effective.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t know what’s popular or what sells well. If you imitate the products that sell well, then at least they won’t be bad.
Although this is an extremely safe approach, Xiao Qian, who has great ambitions, is not willing to accept it.
In a daze, he suddenly thought of a potato chip flavor that had suddenly become popular in his previous life.
If you take it out at this time, you might be able to win by surprise.
"Professor Chen, what do you think about using honey and butter to make potato chips?"
